2. Cleaning the Back Glass
The glass is cleaned in the factory during the assembly process. During shipment, installation, handling, etc., the glass
surface may collect dust particles. These can be removed by buffing lightly with a clean dry cloth.
To remove fingerprints or other marks, the glass can be cleaned with a damp cloth using a good quality household glass cleaner.
The glass should be completely dried with a lint free cloth or paper towel.
In the event of glass breakage, vacuum all remaining glass pieces with a shop vac. DO NOT VACUUM IF PIECES ARE HOT!
Replace glass with only a glass panel ordered direct or through your local distributor. Never use substitute material. Only fully
tempered soda lime safety glass may be used on this heater.
3. Replacing the Light Bulb
The light bulb will need to be replaced when the flame and/or ember bed is dark. Replace the bulb with a 75 watt halogen bulb
with mini-candelabra base. Do not exceed 75 watts per bulb. Light bulbs can be purchased at a local hardware or lighting store,
online or by phone. To order online, log onto www.lite-house.com or call 1-800-838-0977. We recommend you use Sylvania model
75Q/CL/MC/RP or Satco model S3157.
